Shulato #9
Translation by Arcadia

[OP]

{Narrator} "Shulato and the others headed for Tenkuuju in order to Save 
Vishnu, who had been turned to stone by Indrah. In order to climb 
Tenkuuju, they had to open the giant Heiseimon gate by activate the holy 
light inside the four temples on Shitentou island. On the way to 
Shintentou, they met Nirihari, who tried to stop them using illusions. 
However, he was destroyed by the power of Shulato and Reiga's anger. At 
the end of the battle, Gai's ship, Mahava caught up with them. They split 
up and headed for the four temples."

{title} "Battle! Awaken the Holy Light!"

{Dan} "You must be cursing the bad luck that made to come to the temple 
where I was waiting, Shulato."

{Shulato} "Luck or not, I had to go somewhere."

{Lakshu} "You don't get it!"

{Dan} "You'll wish you'd gone to another temple. I won't let you die 
easily. I'll make you suffer ten times as much as you made Vishnu 
suffer."

{Shulato} "That guy's still nuts. Lakshu, stay hidden."

{Lakshu} "Be careful, Shulato."

{Shulato} "I'll take care of it!"

{Shulato} "My Shakti..."

{Lakshu} "Shulato!"

{Dan} "You think you can hide from me? I know where you are now!"

{Lakshu} "Hey! Mister! Hey Dan! Over here!"

{Shulato} "Om Shura Sowaka!"

{Shulato} "ShuraOh Shulato!"

{Shulato} "Thanks, Lakshu!"

{Lakshu} "You're welcome!"

{Dan} "Sneaky brats."

{Shulato} "It probably would do any good to tell you, but we didn't turn 
Vishnu to stone."

{Dan} "I won't listen to the words of traitors. Unless I save Lady Vishnu 
and return Tenkuukai to normal, all the creatures Lady Vishnu loved will 
die."

{Dan} "If I kill the ones who turned her to stone, she'll return to 
normal. Say your prayers, Shulato!"

{Shulato} "Killing us won't help Vishnu!"

{Lakshu} "That's right!"

{Dan} "I'll just kill you and find out! Die, Shulato!"

{Dan} "What happened to the power you had before, traitor?"

{Shulato} "This guy's strong."

{Dan} "Don't think I'll let you die yet. I'll make you pay for what you 
did to Lady Vishnu."

{Lakshu} "Shulato! Are you okay?"

{Lakshu} "Hachibushu shouldn't fight each other. It's too cruel!"

{Dan} "For Lady Vishnu, I'd become even a demon or an ogre."

{Lakshu} "Dan!"

{Dan} "All my life, I'd only thought about fighting and getting stronger. 
Lady Vishnu taught me the real meaning of life."

{Dan} "So much for that."

"Dammit!"

{Dan} "Who's next?"

{Dan} "So you'll all follow me?"

"Y- yeah."

{Dan} "I'm the strongest of all!"

{Dan} "I'll get stronger! I'll get stronger than anyone! Then I'll go the 
Tenkuuden and help protect Tenkuukai!"

{Dan} "And finally the day came when I went to Tenkuuden as a trainee."

{Dan} "I'll never forget the first time I saw Lady Vishnu."

{Vishnu} "Stop!"

{Dan} "Lady Vishnu?"

{Vishnu} "You'll be okay now. Go get some rest."

{Vishnu} "What's your name?"

{Dan} "D- Dan."

{Vishnu} "That's a strong name. But do you think the only way to be 
strong is to be a good fighter?"

{Vishnu} "If you love someone, and have something you want to protect, 
you can become stronger than anyone. If you really want to be strong, you 
need love. Do you understand?"

{Dan} "Yes, a little."

{Vishnu} "A little is enough, as long as you understand."

{Dan} "Yes..."

{Dan} "What..."

{Vishnu} "When you feel like fighting or being violent, hold the pendant 
and remember what I said. Promise me."

{Dan} "Lady Vishnu..."

{Dan} "From that day, I've cared about nothing but being of service to 
Lady Vishnu. As long as she sees fit to smile at me, I need nothing 
else."

{Dan} "And you stole her from me, Shulato!"

{Shulato} "You're wrong! We're trying to help Vishnu!"

{Dan} "More lies, traitor!"

{Shulato} "It looks like I'll never be able to convince you. Fine. I 
don't have anything against you. This is for Vishnu's sake."

{Shulato} "Shura Mahaken!"

{Shulato} "It didn't work?"

{Dan} "Your weak Sohma won't affect me! I'll show you the power of a real 
Hachibushu!"

{shulato} "Your aim's a little off, Dan."

{Dan} "Hiba Ryuusakou!"

{Shulato} "What the-"

{Shulato} "What is this?"

{Lakshu} "Shulato! Shulato!"

{Lakshu} "Shulato!"

{Dan} "That's the end of you, traitor!"

{Lakshu} "Shulato!"

[eyecatch]

{Ryouma} "YashaOh Gai. You're the one Shulato was so worried about."

{Ryouma} "Stand aside."

{Gai} "Put on your Shakti, Ryouma."

{Ryouma} "There's no other way."

{Ryouma} "Om Ryu Sowaka!"

{Ryouma} "RyuOh Ryouma!"

{Ryouma} "You'll regret making me go this far."

{Ryouma} "Let's go, YashaOh Gai!"

{Ryouma} "What? His Sohma is-"

{Lakshu} "Shulato! Shulato! Answer me! Shulato! Please answer me!"

{Dan} "It's too late, Lakshu. You're coming with me. Whatever you were 
planning, it's over."

{Dan} "Come with me, Lakshu."

{Lakshu} "Let go! I have to stay with Shulato! Let me go!"

{Dan} "What-"

{Lakshu} "Shulato!"

{San} "Impossible!"

{Dan} "If you'd died like you were supposed to, you wouldn't have to 
suffer any more."

{Shulato} "I can't die just yet... Not until I save Vishnu... I need her 
power to... I can't die until I turn Gai back to normal!"

{Dan} "More nonsense! Die, traitor!"

{Lakshu} "Shulato!"

{dan} "This is for Lady Vishnu! Die!"

{Lakshu} "I won't let you touch Shulato!"

{Dan} "Get out of the way, Lakshu! Move!"

{Lakshu} "Killing Shulato won't make Lady Vishnu happy. She'll cry."

{Dan} "Do you want to die, too, Lakshu?"

{Lakshu} "I you want to kill me so bad, do it! I'm not afraid of you! You 
think strength is just fighting! For Shulato, I can be stronger than 
anyone!"

{Dan} "Lady Vishnu? It can't be..."

{Dan} "Lakshu, move!"

{Lakshu} "Shulato!"

{Shulato} "I can't die yet. Lakshu, get out of here. I'll take care of 
this guy. You go awaken the light."

{Lakshu} "No, I have to stay with you! We'll always be together, right?"

{Shulato} "That's right, Lakshu. Take care of the holy light."

{Dan} "I applaud your courage."

{Lakshu} "Shulato!"

{Dan} "For that, I'll show you my most powerful technique."

{Dan} "Hiba Gekishinha!"

{Shulato} "Shura Mahaken!"

{Lakshu} "Stop!"

{Dan} "Lady Vishnu!"

{Shulato} "Take this!"

{dan} "What?"

{Dan} "I... can't... lose..."

{Dan} "Lady Vishnu... Why did you leave me..."

{Lakshu} "Shulato! Shulato, wake up! Shulato! Open your eyes!"

{Shulato} "I'll take care of this guy. You go awaken the light."

{Lakshu} "No, I have to stay with you! We'll always be together, right?"

{Shulato} "That's right, Lakshu. Take care of the holy light... Take care 
of the holy light... Take care of the holy light..."

{lakshu} "I'll be right back, Shulato. I know you'll get bored, so I'll 
leave Mii to play with you. Watch Shulato for me, okay, Mii?"

{Lakshu} "I'll be back!"

{Lakshu} "There it is!"

{Lakshu} "If I send Sohma into this, the light will rise."

{Lakshu} "Come, Sohma..."

{Narrator} "Dan loved Vishnu with all his heart. However, his love was so 
complete that it blinded him to the truth. With Shulato wounded, will 
they be able to awaken the light at Genbuden? Will they be able to open 
Heiseimon?"

[ED]

{Shulato} "The Hachibushu continue to fight each other. At Byakkoden, 
it's Hyuga vs Renge. At Seiryuuden, it Ryouma vs Gai. Ryouma's the 
strongest of the Hachbushu, so Gai won't have a chance, right? What? 
Ryouma's Kaengeki didn't work? Gai, what happened to your Sohma? Next on 
Shulato: 'Gai's Fierce Attack! The Unending Fight to the Death'. Om Shura 
Sowaka!"
